  • Is there an origin story for that saying around there?

  • Better than ICE, but I'd still rather see a greater push towards other means of transportation instead of just cars in our cities

  • Glad to hear it was just a buzzing, I thought it could actually rip it from your finger

  • That's good, does anyone know if any other states have similar services?

  • I was able to recover my pinned tabs following these steps:

    • Go to about:config
    • Search for browser.newtabpage.pinned
    • Click on edit pencil, copy this string containing your pins, save it somewhere else
    • Delete current string by clicking on the trash can
    • Close and reopen your browser
    • Go to browser.newtabpage.pinned and paste the saved string
    • If you open a new tab, your pins should be available again
  • I was able to figure out how to increase the shortcuts again, I'm still looking for a way to recover pinned posts:

    As of update 141, more than 8 shorcuts no longer works this way:

    "Increase the number of rows with browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.topSitesRows in about:config and then increase the width of the shortcuts section with the following userContent.css:

     css
        
    @-moz-document url(about:home), url(about:newtab) {
      @media (min-width: 1800px) {
        .ds-outer-wrapper-breakpoint-override main {
          width: 1700px !important;
        }
      }
    }
    
    
      

    "

    Per u/jscher2000 on FirefoxCSS subreddit, we can use this instead:

    The page now uses grid layout. There is a hardcoded number of columns based on page width. You can tweak these rules to get more columns [on the userContent.css file]:

     css
        
        /** Grid column count Override Fx141 **/
        .top-sites-list {
          grid-template-columns: repeat(4, 1fr) !important;
        }
        @media (min-width: 680px) {
          .top-sites-list {
            grid-template-columns: repeat(6, 1fr) !important;
          }
        }
        @media (min-width: 920px) {
          .top-sites-list {
            grid-template-columns: repeat(8, 1fr) !important;
          }
        }
        @media (min-width: 1080px) {
          .top-sites-list {
            grid-template-columns: repeat(10, 1fr) !important;
          }
        }
        @media (min-width: 1360px) {
          .top-sites-list {
            grid-template-columns: repeat(12, 1fr) !important;
          }
        }
    
      
  • Quite weird to see that seen that solar is barely 5% of the total energy supply worldwide. Instead they should shut down coal/oil/gas to free up demand for alternatives

  • What's the source of these graphs? I've seen them used before for a different country and they look really cool. I could probably waste a few hours just browsing different countries

  • They are already shutting it down on their own due to recent heatwaves raising the temps of the water used to cool down their reactors

  • Unfortunately Super Tucanos are out of question with their current government. Neither the current nor the former president of their country is pro-Ukraine, and their two parties are the most likely to win the next election. Ukraine already tried to buy them when the conflict started, but they were rejected immediately

  • How heavy is that?

  • It is lovely to see so many people training their AIs

  • This is another misconception addressed in the Climate Town video on this subject, with more details if you are interested:

    They might need to commute in, but they don't have to drive in. The vast majority of people going to Manhattan doesn't drive, they take the subway, buses, trains and bikes. Only 20% of the people traveling through the congestion zone is in a vehicle and only 2% of the poor drove in.

    Workers that needed to drive in wasted a lot of their valuable hours stuck in gridlock traffic, burning their own costly gasoline and being prevented from reaching their job site, costing them more than congestion pricing

  • That's a common misconception about congestion price in NY. The poor wasn't driving to Manhattan in the first place, they represented only 2%, and the money generated by congestion pricing will be reinvested back into public transport.

    Climate Town did a great video on this subject, with more details if you are interested:

    What's really bad for the poor is car centric design, where you are forced to have a car and spend, on average, $12k annually to maintain it

  • Would you download a train?

  • You don't need to widen roads for that. In fact, it might be the worst option due to induced demand. For the curious, see:

    More Lanes are (Still) a Bad Thinghttps://yewtu.be/watch?v=CHZwOAIect4https://youtu.be/CHZwOAIect4

    The quote specifically mentions "widen any roads". I haven't read Charlottesville plans, but it could have included other options like public transport and bike infrastructure.

  • Guess it is time to fill in that niche, 😉 😉
